B- Air temperature knob (mixing
hot and cold air).
C- Air distribution knob.
D- Air recirculation slider to cut off
outside air.IMPORTANTThis function speeds
up the air cooling in summer. It is par-
ticularly useful when the outside air
is heavily polluted (in a traffic jam, tun-
nel, etc.). You are advised against us-
ing this function for long periods, how-
ever, especially if there are a lot of pas-
sengers in the vehicle.
E- Climate control system on/off

are equipped with a climate control
system consisting of a main system and
a supplementary system (optional) fig.

Turn knob fig. 83 under the roof to
turn the supplementary climate control
system on. It will only work when the
main system is running.
Air flow is distributed to the back
through the directional vents set under
the roof by lever A-fig. 84.
Like for Panorama and Combi, also the
Van versions can be equipped with an
optional climate control system to be set
in the load compartment and to be
switched on using the relevant console
controls.AIR CONDITIONING
(COOLING)
Control settings for quick cooling:
1)air temperature knob: pointer at
the blue sector
2)climate control system: press but-
ton √
3)air recirculation slider: at Ò
4) air distribution knob: pointer at O
5)fan knob: pointer at the required
speed.To reduce the cooling effect: posi-
tion the slider at Ú, to increase the
temperature and decrease the fan
speed.
Do not switch the climate control
system on for heating and ventilation.
Use the ordinary heating and ventila-
tion system (see previous section).
IMPORTANT The climate control
system is very useful for clearing the
windows rapidly because it dries the
air. Simply set the controls for demist-
ing and turn the climate control sys-
tem on with button √.
ADDITIONAL HEATER
Certain versions feature, under the
driver’s seat, an additional heater us-
ing the same heating system controls.

– a control unit connected to the
heater/ventilation unit for automatic
operation;
– an electronic control unit to check
and adjusted the integrated heater
burner;
– a digital timer A-fig. 85to start the
heater manually or to program staring
time.In cold weather, the supplementary
heater automatically warms and cir-
culates constant temperature fluid in
the engine cooling system for the time
required to ensure optimal engine ig-
nition and cab temperature conditions.
The heater can be started automat-
ically (programmed by means of the
digital timer) or manually by pressing
the “heat now” button on the timer.
When the heater is turned on (au-
tomatically or manually), the electronic
control unit operates the fluid circu-
lation pump and safely ignites the burn-
er.The electronic control unit also con-
trols the circulation pump delivery in
order to reduce initial heating time.
When the fluid reaches a temperature
of 30°C, the control unit operates the
passenger compartment ventilation
fan.
When the fluid temperature reaches
72°C, the electronic control unit re-
duces the burner power and stops op-
eration when it reaches 76.5°C. The
timer, circulation pump and heater fan
are kept running. When the fluid tem-
perature drops under 71°C the con-
trol unit automatically turns the burn-
er back on.

IMPORTANTThe heater is
equipped with a thermal switch which
cuts off the heater in the event of
overheating caused by low or leaking
coolant. In this case, press the pro-
gram selection button to start the
heater again after repairing the cool-
ing system fault and/or topping up the
fluid.
The heater can turn itself off after en-
gine ignition or if the flame goes out.
In this case, turn the heater off man-
ually and attempt to turn it back on
again. If you cannot turn the heater on,
contact a Fiat Dealership.Turning the heater on
